We have developed a Matlab toolbox for correcting for dead-time effects in Time-Correlated Single-Photon Counting (TCSPC) measurements done with state-of-the art measurement electronics which records continuous steams of photon detection events in an asynchronous mode (for example, HydraHarp electronics from PicoQuant, Berlin, Germany). The toolbox contains also a routine for modeling and fitting auto-correlation curves measured under continuous-wave constant-intensity illumination, which can be used to precisely determine both electronics and detector dead-time values of a single-photon counting measurement system. A short description of the routines and one example file are also included. The stable version of the toolbox can be downloaded as a zip-file.
